Sikhism is certainly a different religion but it started out as a reform movement. For example, I am sure (but not certain) Sikhism wanted to equalise the castes of Hinduism:
"The Word is the Yoga, the Word is the spiritual wisdom; the Word is the Vedas for the Brahmin.
The Word is the heroic bravery for the Kshatriya; the Word is the service to others for the Shudra.
The Word of all the Words is but One Word for one who knows this secret.
Nanak is the slave of the Immaculate Divine." ||3||
"Everyone says that there are four castes, four social classes. They all emanate from the drop of God's Seed. (2)
The entire universe is made of the same clay. The Potter has shaped it into all sorts of vessels. (3)"
"The four castes - the Kh'shaatriyas, Brahmins, Soodras and Vaishyas - are equal in respect to the teachings.
One who, as Gurmukh, chants the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is saved.
In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, O Nanak, God is permeating the hearts of each and every being. (4)(3)(50)"
Sikhism sees no need for rituals. Sewa is more important
"I observe neither Hindu fasting nor the ritual of the Muslim Ramadan month; I serve the One, who at the last shall save. The Lord of the Universe of the Hindus, Gosain and Allah to me are One… I do not make pilgrimages to Mecca, nor do I worship at Hindu sacred shrines. I serve the One Lord, and not any other. I perform neither the Hindu worship nor the Muslim prayer. I have taken the One Formless Lord into my heart; and I humbly worship my Lord there. We neither are Hindus nor Muslims; our body and life belong to the One Supreme Being who alone is both Ram and Allah for us."
